Can someone build me a table?

I guess our Postal Service is putting the Eames and their new-fangled furniture designs on stamps. Well, as an inventor myself, who took a fancy to wood and carpentry, I appreciate their creativity.

I wish I had the Eames around back in the day when my wife wanted me to build a new table. I spent hours crafting, cutting and sanding that thing and ended up looking less than square. I actually got it to stand on three legs, but it wasn't much good for holding the chicken dinner.
